After searching high and low for a new host, we finally found one and they seem to be excellent. Most of the stuff is already onto the new host, but the rest of it will be completed Monday morning. The address (www.3wheelerworldforums.com) will stay the same. There is not any expected down time. No more "vBulletin error!" pages after this is completed :beer

This is exactly why we decided to change the hosting company. We gave the old hosting company plenty of time to correct the problems they had. They didn't seem do anything so the choice was made to find a new hosting company.
Billy did some checking and found this place. Everything I have seen leads me to believe they will be A LOT better!! Sure the cost is a bit more but I think it will be worth the added $$$.

Billy deserves ALL the credit for this change. Thanks!!!!

Yes...pain in the ass indeed. Our new host www.asmallorange.com has been really helpful in getting things moved over. There would have been several days worth of downtime on the board if I had done it myself but they are doing it and there wont be any, its working out great. Plus we are getting much more space and bandwidth for the buck then then we were.

The 3WW Paypal account set up for NON-Credit Card Funded Paypal is donations@3wheelerworld.com NOTE: We do not accept Credit Card Funded Paypal Donations via this account. Why not? To accept credit card funded Paypal on this account we would have to upgrade the account. If we upgrade this Paypal account to accept Credit Card funded Paypal donations then every future donation received in the account is subject to Paypal fees. Those fees can add up real quick. All Credit Card Funded Paypal donation sent to the ( donations@3wheelerworld.com ) account will be denied. It's nothing personal, we just don't want to upgrade this account ( we have another account available for these types of donations ).

If you want to donate via Credit Card Funded Paypal you can send it to 4howdy@bright.net


Thanks
Howdy

The way it was is the way it remains. Did anyone notice the difference today? Yes, the switch has been completed. It's nice knowing when you want to log on the forums are working. ;)

Thanks Billy, this is one awesome forum, my favourite. I tune in daily, and it never gets old. Thanks to the site and this forum I've got lots of guys addicted to trikes. If you ask me this forum is pretty much the world communication hub for trike enthusiasts, doin an awesome job man!

I think maybe once I've had problem accessing the forum but it ended up being problems on my end. www.asmallorange.com has been superb. Alot better then the old imaginenetworks.
